sounds good so far.
What about just a catback exhaust like the hks hiper and a XS engineering cold air intake?
Will that get close or no?
What is the silicon ic hose? HOw many horses does that add?
One more ?, how many hp does jsut a k and n air filter add?
thanks guys

Cobb AccessECU stage 1 reflash. Safe, reliable horsepower gains. $395 and should outperform more expensive exhaust mods.
And since krillz is right, you won't stop there, you can always add a turboback and another 25whp (+50 total vs. stock) with Stage 2 for $20!

yeah intake mods wont do **** (2 hoss if you're lucky) I've even heard of slight power loss with a K&N (hearsay dont quote me on that)
3 of the quickest routes:
1: ECU replament or reflash (safe and adds a smoother ride)
2: Full Exhaust replacemnt, up pipe, down pipe, catback (also safe and simple and adds some nice sound)
3: boost controler and crank up the boost (gauranteed to add hoss but dangerous [insert horror story here])
HKS Hi-power is good for about 10-12 (dyno graphis right on there site) the DP is good for another 6-8 and so is the up-pipe.

Look reality in the face
almost ALL of us said I want 250 crank HP and thats it.
There is little to no chance you are going to stop there.
That said, a stage zero reflash with up pipe
UTEC stage one and Samcos
Up pipe, MBC, Samcos
Up pipe and turboback
Any of those will put you at or just over 250 at the crank

Car Info: Black WRX, X.S. turbo back exhaust, X.S. cold air, and a lot of plans
If you live in a place where it rains, or snow a lot, a cai is a bad plan. I say get something like an MRT short arm intake, I just changed out on XS cai for the MRT one and there is no diffence at all. Also at the close to $250 mark XS sell them at you could get a lot more power from something else. I have their mid and down pipes, I like them, but I would say go with a down pipe that has an opening behind the wastegate. Much better spool up time, and from what I have heard makes more power, because the wastegate can work how it should. Also the Mid/down remove your 2nd and 3rd cat, there but making the car "non Streetable" and remember that ticket starts at $1200. If you want to keep the sound down keep the cats in, so again an MRT with cats is better.
PS I have always wanted to push the over 400 HP mark, but don't think I will.
Have fun
